The colour of this dress has triggered a memory that I just can't place and its driving me mad! Anyone in their late 30's/early 40's please help!

Can anyone help please? I've got this memory of maybe a girl group or a musical or something where they've all got different coloured dresses in these different bright colours, all different colour combinations. I sound like I've lost the plot don't I! I thought maybe it was a girls allowed video but it's not. Any ideas please? It might be from the 80's.

It makes me think of one of the dresses in the original West Side Story, but I’m fairly certain that’s not the reference you’re looking for!

This is what I thought as well.

Can't seem to attach the picture but if you Google The Saturdays one of the first pics is in these colours

If a musical film / stage play could it have been Seven brides for seven brothers?

Scooby do? Not daphne the other one?

Completey off topic but Chrissys face is hilarious.

Thanks for the reminder of fuzz box!! Rent a band!!

Hairspray ?or another John waters film /musical ?

I too thought scooby doo.

13 going on 30?
Those sweets

Maybe How do you Solve a Problem like Maria?

Or the Nancies from I'd Do Anything:

Is it Steps last thing on my mind? Or tragedy?

This?

It made me think of Girls Aloud too!

It reminded me of Clueless

George Michael - Too Funky video with the 90s supermodels?

@Papertrail392

No, none of the above. Definitely a group, dancing, some of the colours we're green and yellow, all that same bright pop. Not the pink wind mill kids (loved that programme!).

I'm hoping that maybe when I stop trying so hard to think of it it'll come to me. Maybe if I sleep on it.

Thanks for all the ideas.

Saved by the Bell?

Google girls aloud love machine

No it’s The Saturdays with UP when they had different coloured tights with dresses!

That was my thought too

My original thought was the Girls Aloud Love Machine.

Not Many a New Day in Oklahoma? That's a floofy petticoat song/dance.

I'm thinking 90s super models, Vasace, Linda Evangelista.

Definitely girls aloud! I Had a knock off one from Leeds market

I said Bootylicious earlier but the Say my Name video also has brightly coloured mix and match outfits.

Victoria Beckham loos so different! I forgot she ever looked like that.

I feel like I know the one you're talking about and it isn't any of these. The orange net and pink / purple dress over I rings a bell for me too and the different ice cream colour ball dresses. I think it's from a musical or one of those dance segments they used to have in programmes like 3, 2, 1.

If you cover her face then it might help to concentrate on the costume, I think it’s from the 70’s.

Old vintage rainbowbrite?
